Contest Rules

Registration is free unless a contest page clearly describes a separate optional service. No purchase or payment is required to enter, submit a project, or be eligible for prizes. Winners are selected on merit using the published judging criteria, not by luck or chance.

• Participants must provide accurate, complete registration and submission information.
• Participants must be at least 18 years old or have consent from a parent or legal guardian.
• Each participant must keep their registration ID and submit before the contest deadline shown on the relevant contest page.
• Pushpak Hiring may disqualify entries that are incomplete, late, fraudulent, copied, abusive, or otherwise violate these rules.

• Submit original work or use third-party material only when you have permission or a valid licence to use it.
• Do not submit plagiarised work, impersonate another person, use bots to manipulate participation, or submit harmful, illegal, or infringing content.
• AI tools may be used only when the individual contest brief permits them. Participants remain responsible for the accuracy, originality, and rights clearance of their submission.

Where a contest brief requires a social media post, video demonstration, or reel, the participant must follow these platform-specific tagging rules:

LinkedIn, Instagram, X/Twitter, and YouTube are not sponsors, administrators, or endorsers of Pushpak Hiring contests. Each participant releases these platforms from any responsibility connected with the contest.

• Each contest page states its judging criteria, submission deadline, prize, and expected result date. The judging panel will assess submissions against that criteria.
• Prize descriptions are subject to eligibility and submission verification. Prizes are non-transferable and may not be exchanged for a different prize unless Pushpak Hiring confirms otherwise in writing.
• Winners are contacted using their submitted details. A winner who does not respond within the stated period may forfeit the prize and an alternate winner may be selected.
• Any tax, bank charge, or statutory obligation connected with a prize is the recipient’s responsibility, unless the contest page says otherwise.

Participants retain ownership of their original submissions. By entering, they give Pushpak Hiring a non-exclusive, royalty-free permission to review the entry and, for finalists or winners, to display their name, project title, public submission link, and approved promotional content on the platform and official channels. Personal information is handled under our Privacy Policy. Pushpak Hiring may update a contest schedule, rules, or prize only where reasonably necessary; material changes will be published on the relevant contest page.

These rules supplement the platform Terms & Conditions and are governed by the laws of India. For contest questions, contact pushpakchintu@gmail.com.
